Book poll

Basically, I’m hoping someone, somewhere has some advice. My Trojan War novel’s about 165k words long, give or take a few thousand, before notes and glossary of characters, place names and patronymics. Because there’s not really anything I can cut from the story–in fact, there’s a lot I left out–I have to figure out how (and if) to proceed with self-publishing. If I publish with an option to get physical copies, then putting it all in one volume would have so many pages that it would be impractical, and would probably have to cost a lot just to cover the printing costs. I’ve split it now, and with notes and glossary, volume 1 is 125k and volume 2 is 97k. (I think. I’m more sure about volume 1 than volume 2, ’cause I was just looking at it last night.)
